Close to fairgrounds is about the only plus. Hotel needs lots of updates and is extremely old. Management was friendly and fixed it non working toilet quickly. Lighting was dim and minimal, but rooms are fairly large.

For a king size bed, it had four (4) small pillows. They were placed two (2) on one side and two (2) on the other side. Shower nozzle was for a tall person 6 ft 3in.

This hotel definitely needs some work. Furniture very worn, curtains had holes which didn’t filter light, ac/heat unit fan option not working. I moved shower curtain and used washcloth and hand towel fell off top railing from previous guests. It was very noisy!
